Kusama – Infinity

Though born into wealth, Kusama was an underdog from the word go. Growing up in Japan during World War Two and in a highly dysfunctional family, who loathed her creative ambitions, she then faced racism on her arrival in New York in the 1950s. Facing many hurdles including a lifetime of mental illness, she is now one of the world's best-selling artists with a long standing cult-following.
